Hydroseeding

Advantages of Hydroseeding

Hydroseeding has the aspect of being versatile in any situation. Difficult areas that are unable to be seeded with other methods can be a simple job for a hydro-seeder, such as ditches, berms, slopes, and narrow areas. Also, having endless mixture possibilities will ensure that the proper mixture is being put on your unique landscaping needs.

Hydroseeding is safe and a great way for preventing weeds from germinating and further spreading. The slurry is nontoxic and poses no threat to humans, animals, or the environment. Since the soils can hold in moisture it allows the slurry to be able to grasp on better, allowing seeds to develop at a faster pace. Hydroseeding promotes a much healthier, thicker, and longer lasting coverage to any alternative.

Why Hydroseed?

Hydroseeding is cost effective with time and money as it can be completed up to 50% faster than conventional techniques, as well as, up to 75% cheaper as it is not as labour intensive. This method can hold as much as 10 times its weight, allowing for extra moisture to be held, where seeds can begin to sprout as quick as 3-5 days after application.
